Here’s the set-up:

NASA discovered the alien ship lurking in the asteroid belt in the 1960s. They kept the Target under intense surveillance for decades, letting the public believe they were exploring the solar system, while they worked feverishly to refine the technology needed to reach it.

The ship itself remained silent, drifting.

Dr. Jane Holloway is content documenting nearly-extinct languages and had never contemplated becoming an astronaut. But when NASA recruits her to join a team of military scientists for an expedition to the Target, it’s an adventure she can’t refuse.

The ship isn’t vacant, as they presumed.

A disembodied voice rumbles inside Jane’s head, “You are home.”

Jane fights the growing doubts of her colleagues as she attempts to decipher what the alien wants from her. As the derelict ship devolves into chaos and the crew gets cut off from their escape route, Jane must decide if she can trust the alien’s help to survive.

“Addictive, intelligent, edge-of-your seat writing; as urgent and gripping as it gets.”– Oliver Harris, bestselling author of the Nick Belsey thrillers, on ‘Saint Justice’.

It takes a cult leader to kill a cult.

During a midnight brawl in a fake Arizona town, cult leader and freelance CIA agent Christopher Wren receives disturbing news. The Blue Fairy, a near-mythical cabal of elite child abusers operating in the recesses of the ‘dark’ Internet, has lashed out in the real world. Now an anti-pedophile activist is dead, two more have been captured, and only Wren recognizes what’s happening.

The monsters are coming out into the plain light of day.

A wave of cruelty floods across America. A dark new world edges closer to birth. Wren alone stands in the path of the coming storm, holding a torch high to guide the lost little children home…

If you love Jack Reacher, John Milton or Alex Cross you’ll love this book.

Here’s the set-up:

Inspired by Art: A Peek at Bathsheba is a collection of art throughout the ages, around the story of David. This volume focuses on the most torrid love affair ever told: David’s forbidden love affair with Bathsheba and his attempt to cover it up.

These amazing sculptures, paintings, etchings, and manuscripts inspired the author to write The David Chronicles, a series of three volumes, the second of which is A Peek at Bathsheba, where she imagines the love affair and the ensuing scandal. Besides being an artist and having worked as an architect, she taught art history, and this collection served as the basis for a research course analyzing the contrasts in viewpoints around the biblical story.

This collection is arranged not by artist, nor by artistic style or era, but rather by the story moment-by-moment, blow-by-blow, as imagined by various artists. Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Chagall, Picasso, and Jan Steen to name but a few.

Here’s the set-up:

Rebecca Anne Stollen survives one breath to the next—but she’s not living. Not since her husband died on Christmas Eve three years ago. She’s stuck in a dark place, and each morning she gets out of bed is a triumph. Then, as the shadow of another Christmas Eve in her empty house looms… an angel saves her from a vampire’s bite. Either that, or she’s losing her mind. But she’s suddenly possessed with painting heavenly, sexy angels, and it feels like something has broken loose. Is it even possible angels are real? Can one kiss save her? It’s either that… or her mind is finally as broken as her heart.

Kiss of an Angel is the standalone story of CASSIEL, an angeling of the light in the world of the FALLEN ANGELS series, but it can be read independently. It contains sexy hot angelings of the light.

FALLEN ANGELS is the follow-on series to FALLEN IMMORTALS. It’s recommended that you read FALLEN IMMORTALS first, but the series can be read independently.

(Warning! Contains sex, violence, murder and mayhem. Future books in the series contain M/F/M)

Then: Salem, MA 1692. Burning, hanging, stoning and drowning were the way they killed a witch. The trials were a joke, and the deaths were a shame. The Killing times changed so many lives… forever.

After a stint in the FBI, a failed assignment and a disastrous affair, she has returned to a town she willingly walked away from, her body and heart battered and bruised. Her father’s sudden death has brought her home, opening up more questions that need answers. As she agrees to step in as Sheriff, she finds that the sleepy town isn’t quite as tranquil as she thought. A string of bizarre killings that are mimicking the Salem Witch trials is plaguing the town, and scaring the people she has sworn to protect.

Elizabeth now has to call in the FBI, and be faced with a past and people she is trying to forget.
Will Ethan Blackhawk be her salvation or her ultimate downfall?
